Good morning. I am re-watching Luther and managed to freak myself out last night. I seem to have forgotten alot of it. What an excellent series mind.

An excellent thread title Wee.

WreckTangled · 30/04/2021 10:27

Back from food shopping. £77 and only three things I couldn't get.

Ours have a pool at the school so easier for them to swim and also a massive waste if they don't.

CrazyBaubles · 30/04/2021 12:02

Love the thread title Wee (and our mascot woolly).

70 I completely forgot Bruce tbh sorry not sorry

I loved Luther why but I have to be in the right mood for it or it terrifies me.

Wreck My comp school had a pool until I was in year 9 when they filled it. I hated it, getting changed with boobs that were bigger than everyone else's, mixed sex swimming lessons (and the horrible comments that come from 12yo boys in that situation), walking around with wet hair, periods 🙄
I very quickly learned to write my own notes to excuse myself / was ill / skipped school for those lessons.

I've just finished my only meeting of the day and have some basic typing up / admin type tasks to do which is good because I'm tired with a headache. Ddog woke us up several times through the night so this is a miserable house today!

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 30/04/2021 16:03

There's only one vest wearer IMO

I'll take No. 2 please Crazy. Don't bother wrapping him 😳

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 30/04/2021 17:11

I have no Jeffing clue who any of those men are Xmas Blush . I thnk No2 is Thor ?

I am officially Old&Out of Touch .
I'd recognise Bruce Willlis . but it doesn't mean I want to see him in his vest Grin

WeeDonkey · 30/04/2021 17:12

Vests don't do a huge amount for me either. But I do recall Guy Pierce wearing one in his Neighbours days, maybe?! 🤤

OP posts:
whydoesitalwayshappentome · 30/04/2021 17:57

I can confirm Guy wore a vest in Neighbours Wee. A sight I never needed to see.

CrazyBaubles · 30/04/2021 18:14

70 they are Taylor Kinney (he's in a show called Chicago Fire and used to date Lady Gaga), Chris Hemsworth (Thor) and Dan Biggar (Welsh rugby team). I like all 3 though number 2 is my fave.

I don't know who Guy Pierce is Blush

WeeDonkey · 30/04/2021 18:15

Have you seen Hurt Locker, Crazy? He's the bomb disposal expert at the beginning.

OP posts:
WeeDonkey · 30/04/2021 18:17

It's Pearce, which might be why I didn't give you enough clue. Oops.

OP posts:
CrazyBaubles · 30/04/2021 18:20

I've just googled him and recognised his face from one of the Iron Man films. Not my type at all I'm afraid and he's only a year younger than my mum

WeeDonkey · 30/04/2021 18:21

I have been thinking about Craig McLachlan, upon Googling. He definitely wasn't my type!

Morning! It's lovely here today. ☀️

I'm on my way into town to get bird and garden bits from Wilko and collect my online H&B peanut butter order. With cash back and a £5 boost from Airtime Rewards, 4kg has cost just over a tenner. Bargain!

We're off to the pub today. Hope we can get a seat!

OP posts:
WreckTangled · 01/05/2021 08:51

It's sunny here too and dh isn't working for once! Good luck with the pub, they're booked up at least a week in advance here, our local one was booked for a month the week before it opened. There's fewer to choose from round here I suppose.

CrazyBaubles · 01/05/2021 09:07

Morning. Rude awakening here at 7 as ddog woke us by being sick 🤢

Wee I don't recognise anyone from the neighbours pictures Blush
I used to love watching it as a kid with my mum - first person I remember having a crush on from it was Jesse Spencer (Billy Kennedy) - who I still watch now as he's in Chicago Fire.

Same here with the pubs Wreck, everything has been booked in advance.

I've completely lost my voice again. So frustrating, this seems to happen every other month or so and I don't know why.

Boring day planned here - I noticed a few patches on the dresser we painted so may touch that up, and there are some spots of filler in the kitchen from when we replaced the worktop so may touch them up too. Will also blitz the house and we have an Iceland delivery due between 10 and 12.

No pub for me , maybe once it all gets quieter we'll go to the local 'Spoons for a meal but I cannot see that being for months

I have a batch of dough in the breadmaker ( to try Cinnamon Buns) and plan to do some garden tidy up efoort .

Have a good day all
Wee 4kg of peanut butter is a serious amount Xmas Grin

Good morning all! I may have gone a bit crazy in T2 but now have some nice festive teas for DD's advent calendar. I missed the 70% off in Boots (I usually find a gift set she likes that I can split) but I have some make up brushes that I couldn't find last year when wrapping decided to save for this year.
